Wondering about the unusual blog name for a paper crafter? My site is named after my Black Lab, Shadow. Shadow received his name by being my constant shadow including while I am crafting. The running joke in my family is that due to the whole 'Labs shed A LOT', everything I create has a signature 'Shadow' hair hidden somewhere... I hope you enjoy my creations and please don't hunt for the tiny black hairs :)

Color Me Beautiful inspired

Well, if you happened to see my post yesterday, you know that I was taking full advantage of my first day of fall break. I did manage to spend a good part of the day in my jammies. It was rainy and chilly so the weather was perfect for this. I did several loads of laundry, blog stalked and started getting caught up on my emails, and most importantly, I crafted! I even managed to tidy up my crafting space a little bit before starting, not that you can tell anymore! Teehee!

I managed to get a few scrapbook pages completed for upcoming DT projects and found some time to play with the colors from this weeks challenge at Color Me Beautiful. I already had the paper on my table, so it wasn't too difficult to get started! After pulling out a variety of DSP patterns, I knew I wanted to make a quilt card...um...make that two!

Such an easy way to play with all of the colors and now I have two more birthday cards for my stash! Well, I have quite a busy day planned-bridal shower and a family reunion, so there won't be much crafting today, but there's still two more days left of my fall break!! Woo! Hoo!

I thought I commented on these!!! Apparently I just had a one sided conversation in my head. I think I must have seen them on my phone and thought I'd said something!! I love your quilted cards and now with these 2 and the other one, I about have one 1/2 of my lower leg covered. ;)These are spectacular Margaret...eat your heart out quilters!
